Hey Guys,
Just got a smoker and after reading much about people using Foodsavers on the site, I've been trying to convince myself to get one. I always end up getting freezer burn in my ziplock bags...
1) I was thinking about getting the FoodSaver V2840 from Amazon for about 115$ with shipping. Any reason to buy a different machine?
2) Just me and SWMBO, but it seems the best deals are buying pairs of butts and 3-racks of spares at Sam's. For taste, is it best to freeze the raw meat or the cooked product?
3) How much does the meat suffer being frozen for a couple months?
4) Will a whole butt fit in one of those 11"bags?
5) I read some threads where people mentioned buying generic bags/rolls on ebay. Would you mind sharing which sellers you've used?
Thanks!
